The Youth Accommodation Program (YAP) is a 24 hour crisis accommodation service that provides case management and support to youths aged 15-25 who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. In special circumstances young people aged 10-14 can be accommodated with the approval of CPFS. Young people can stay at YAP for up to 3 months at which point their case will be reassessed.
|
We have Youth Engagement Workers and Youth Workers that work with the young people to create their own support plans to build their life skills, set and achieve goals and improve their pathway into the future using a holistic approach.
